Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The AARC developed a Clinical Practice Guideline on Long-Term Invasive Mechanical Ventila-tion in the Home. Excerpts appear on pp. 1299-1300.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
In alternative settings, invasive ventilatory support always involves application of positive pres-sure ventilation by tracheotomy. Noninvasive approaches include positive and negative pressure ventilation via an intact upper airway or abdominal displacement methods.
